- Ivan ShilovMoscow, Russia19 contributionsThis place is worth two hours of your time. You can see some very old buildings. The bell that rang at the time of the murder of Tsarevich Dmitry.

- Sandra and Alan SEdinburgh, UK8,007 contributionsLocated at the top of the steps up from the River Cruise Dock, this Museum is well placed for the tourists who arrive here to wait on their bus for a tour of the town.
Unfortunately closed when we were in town, the art visible in the window was of reasonable quality, but probably an acquired taste if you wanted to buy a piece.Written 26 April 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The exterior is very impressive and the interior looks like a construction site. We happened to be there during a service and it was very interesting to see how Russian Orthodox services are conducted. I've attached some photos.

- Natalia SMoscow, Moscow City, Russia39 contributionsSmall monastery with several buildings. Well-groomed, clean. One of the buildings has a very unusual roof - three towers tapering to the top. Inside is a miraculous icon. The second church has well-preserved clay tiles.Written 1 May 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
